DRSBR'S 



Wholesale Price List of 

 Plants for Florists, 



Our stock of decorative plants, such as Palms, Ferns, Pandanns, Ficns, Araucaria, 'tc, etc., is now very complete in 

 a fall line of sizes, from small seedlings for growing on, to specimens of the most useful decorative sizes. The plants 

 are all in a clean, healthy, vigorous condition, thrifty and well-grown. 



Our Measurement of Plants, 



where given, as in the case of Araucarias, Palms, etc., etc., means the height 

 of the plant from the top of the pot to the top of the plant in its natural 

 position. We make this explanation of our way of measuring, as many growers contend that the proper measurement is 

 •from the bottom of the pot to the tip of the longest leaf, and make their offers in that way. 



An Invitation. Wheuever possible, we solicit a personal inspection of our stock. Our Nurseries at Eiverton, 

 N. .J., are within easy reach from either Philadelphia or New York (Time Tables on application), 

 and something of interest will always be seen. We have considerably increased our facilities for the handling of Aquatic 

 Plants, and our Water Lily Garden is now the largest and most complete in the world. This alone is well worth a visit 

 from the most distant points. Aquatics are at their best from early July until late September. The collection not only 

 includes large lots of the most popular sorts, but all the latest introductions and many new sorts of which we possess the 

 entire stock, and which have not yet been disseminated ; the different varieties of Victorias luxuriate here, and from 

 present indications feel safe in saying that one or more sorts will be found in flower any day during the season. 



Ageratum Stella Gdrnky. 



Acacia Armata. 



A pretty spring flowering variety which produces its 

 flowers in globular heads from the axils of the foliage in 

 such a manner as to completely envelop the plant in a 

 pleasing light yellow ; an excellent plant for Easter forc- 

 ing, succeeding under the same culture as the Azaleas. A 

 nice lot of bushy plants in 5 inch pots. 12 to 15 inches high. 

 40cts.each; $4.50perdoz.; $35.00 per 100. Eeady in October. 



Ageratum Stella Gurney. 



This variety originated with Mr. James Gurney, of the 

 Missouri Botanical Gardens, where it has been used exten- 

 sively as bedding plant the past summer. It is a decided 

 improvement in color, being the deepest blue yet introduced 

 and is exceptionally free flowering, not only in summer but 

 the year round. 



75 cts. per dozen ; $6.00 per 100. 



Allaxaanda Williamsii. 



This handsome variety is entirely distinct from all others, 

 being quite dwarf and in no way resembling a climber, 

 but forming a compact bush with trusses of bloom at every 

 point, and having from two to four expanded blooms on 

 each extremity at the same time and buds innumerable. 

 It continues flowering the whole summer, and, with proper 

 management, in the winter also. The flowers are of a 

 very rich yet delicate tint of yellow, deliciously scented.

Aristolocliia Sturtevantii. 



(Duck Plant.) 



The most curious and interesting of all Aristolochias, the 

 flowers are heart shaped, 8 to 10 inches in diameter, of a 

 creamy white color, the interior beautifully mottled with 

 deep claret purple, deepening towards the throat to solid 

 purplish maroon. An exterior view of the flower resembles 

 a duck, hence the name.
